Less than 60% of the households of the state have access to high speed broadband internet, which is among the lowest rates in the country. Unlike many of the states with poor condition of life, the residents here are not engaged in politics. Less than 53% of the eligible adults voted in 2013. The state also ranks in the lowest 16% of OECD regions for civic engagement. It has the 3rd lowest voter turnout, and not quite surprisingly, 14th highest homicide rate. It also has the 22nd lowest employment rate and 19th lowest household disposable income per capita.
